What Is Children's Dentistry?
Children's dentistry, also referred to as pediatric dentistry, focuses on the oral health needs of infants, children, and teenagers. It involves preventive care, early diagnosis of dental issues, education for parents and kids, and specialized treatments suited for developing smiles.
At Aglow Dental Studio, our children's dental services include:
- Routine dental exams and cleanings
- Fluoride treatments for cavity prevention
- Protective dental sealants
- Digital X-rays with minimal radiation exposure
- Cavity detection and dental fillings
- Emergency dental care for injuries or pain
- Early orthodontic evaluations
- Patient and parent education on healthy habits
Our goal is to make every visit educational, empowering, and fun for our youngest patients.

When Should My Child Visit the Dentist?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry recommends scheduling a child's first dental visit by
their first birthday or within six months of the first tooth appearing. Establishing a dental
home early helps monitor growth and development, prevents potential issues, and teaches kids
that visiting the dentist can be a positive experience.
Our team provides gentle, thorough care, helping children feel comfortable whether they need a
simple cleaning or treatment for a dental emergency.
